Well my wife has been wanting to put a DVD player in our car for our son so he is entertained while we are driving. My wife left a few days ago for 30 days, so since our anniversary is coming up I ordered her this.

I also purchased the ipod cable to hook up her ipod mini to it. Anyways, just wanted to show everyone what you can get for your car to control your ipod with.


Next on the list is 2 7" monitors for behind the headrests. Does anyone know anything about this brand and model of LCD screens?

Thank-you

Yeah, I hope she likes it, it seems simple for her, since she isn't too electronic savvy.

do they make small bluetooth keyboards with built in mice? I don't want some huge keyboard laying around inside my wifes car.


First thing to get is the headrest monitor, but that will have to wait until christmas, then I want to get new speakers, and maybe an 8" sub for the trunk, then maybe look into a macmini.

I ordered the farenheit 7" widescreen LCD monitor for my son in the backseat

I also got here some neoprene seat covers in black and grey, so that her seats won't get ruined by our 1 year old son.
